George Foreman
There's never been a boxer better than Joe Louis. You'd take one shot from him and you were sure he'd have seven or eight more coming for you. Certainly Muhammad Ali was the greatest man ever to fight, but not the greatest boxer.

George Foreman
You live and learn. Then you die and forget it all.
George Foreman
The referee is going to be the most important person in the ring tonight besides the fighters.
George Foreman
If you want it, leave your excuses behind and come and get it
George Foreman
After you work out, you have your dog with you. There's no better companion. You've got to have a friend. I didn't like opponents who had dogs with them. Because you know they had a little edge. They have a friend
George Foreman
Everything America should be, Muhammad Ali is.
George Foreman
Sometimes God gives instructions that go against conventional wisdom, such as treating people kindly when they're hateful. Who really wants to do that? Instructions like that may not always make sense, so that's why I need to trust and obey the One who inspired them.
George Foreman
Being angry and resentful of someone is like letting them live rent-free in your head.
George Foreman
I look at my children and one thing I'm most proud of, in my heart, are my children.
George Foreman
No doubt about it, in my career Ron Lyle hit me the hardest. One time he hit me so hard I didn't see it until I saw it on film when I woke up!
George Foreman
Growing up poor, I didn't even have a lunch to take to school.
